Phase I: data gathering phase. Phase II: the software development phase in which the source code of the software was developed. Phase III: system testing phase that was divided into two steps: alpha testing phase, in which 20 syndromic scenarios were supplied to the software and the beta testing phase, in which the performance of SonoCAD was compared with the performance of the already established web site phenotip.com launched in 2014. Phase IV: the refining phase.Results: In 92% of the syndromes provided, SonoCAD was capable of providing the correct diagnosis, while only in 53.3% of the syndromes phenotip.com was capable of providing the correct diagnosis.Discussion and Conclusion: Sonographyic computer-assisted diagnosis is an efficient, properly functioning, time-saving software that could be utilized by all who are involved in prenatal diagnosis. SonoCAD was found to be more efficient and more accurate in generating a correct diagnosis when compared with the already available website phenotip.com having the same functionality. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
